If you're thinking about buy
ing new clothes (Pantaloons,
Suit or Overcoat, or Furnishing
Goods, Shirts, Underwear or
Toilette 'Fixings' of any de-
scription, you'll find the Grand
est, Largest and most Elegant
stock your eyes ever gazed upon
now arranged for your selection
at Mabley & Carew's.
Buyers should remember that
our mammoth store is not only
the leading Clothing and Fur
nishing Goods House in the
South, but that the thirty-two
consolidated stores of Mabley &
Carew represent the largest
clothing syndicate in America.
Folks who are compelled to go
shopping experience many vexa-
tions and meet with numerous
disappointments in their tedious
walks from store to store, from
shop to shop, searching for what
they wish topurchase. There's
as much difference in the indi-
vidual tastes of people as there
is in the variety and quality of
goods. Ii a dealer does not sell
goods to please everybody then
these establishments must take
chancesfo trade on such patron
age as they may accidentally re-
ceive. There's no accidental"
patronage at Mabley & Carew's s.
A buyer who comes to our store
can ALWAYS purchase just the
goods he wants, for our enor-
nous display affords him an
abundance of styles and pat
terms to select from.
When you come TO the city
you're welcome to make our
store your headquarters If you
are encumbered with baggage or
packages have them checked
free at our first floor bundlecoun-
ter subject to your order on de-
mand. Courteous statesmen will
give you any information de-
sired, whether you purchase or
not We have goods for every
body, Merchants, Bankers, Me
chanics, Loborers, Men, Boys
and Children are all treated with
uniform courtesy and fairness.
One price to all, and that is al
ways the lowest quoted in Bati-
more.

One obstacle that has stood in the way
Of planting that exotic, the telegraph pole,
in Chinese soil las been the widespread
belief among the peasantry that the
strange whispering wires they support
when strung along near graveyarfls exert
a baleful influence upon the long sleep Of
their revered ancestors. AS nearly every
hilltop in China ID scrowned by the tombs
of lamented forefathers, it has been very
difficult to select routes for telegraph
lines where the wires were not likely to
falI . prey to the popular prejudice against
them. Il is noteworthy that the great
telegraph line which Is to connect Rekin
with Europe will take short cut to the
Cobb desert, and viii pass through less
thzn 800 l:ilcs of ialiabifed country in the
9c0 miles tc Kiachfn. where Ii will join
the Russian lines. New York Sum.
